“I’m sure I’m not the only one who keeps thinking “BraveHeart” when hearing those accents either.” No I just think of everyday :P It’s really pretty amazing to see Disney•Pixar do an animated movie of my country. Although it’s quite surreal hearing all those Scottish accents in one trailer.

Yes. Although it’s hard to get famous actors all from the same region, it is a bit strange that you have Highlanders ,ixed in whith what I would call city accents. Definately the lead character sounds really modern, not traditional

Sorry to double post – that message was sent premature. *mixed. For Americans it’s a bit like having a New York accent in True Grit. It doesn’t really work. However, Brave is only a film so we cannot really complain.

I think the reason many of us think “Braveheart” when we hear those accents (and see tartans & Pictish face paint) is because it is pretty much the only widely-known depiction we have of Scotland. I cannot wait to see this film, this trailer looks fantastic – particularly the landscape shots.

That, and Merida says the word “freedom”. Unless you haven’t been in touch with Western civilization for the last 25 years, if you hear that word spoken in anything resembling a Scottish accent, you’ll think of Braveheart.
